There are also two stand-alone webinar options that can be attended by both the K-12 and Higher Education community. All of the webinars will also be available on YouTube and linked to this page after the live event has ended.

"This book explores the legal literacies covered during the virtual Building Legal Literacies for Text Data Mining Institute, including copyright (both U.S. and international law), technological protection measures, privacy, and ethical considerations. It describes in detail how we developed and delivered the 4-day institute, and also provides ideas for hosting shorter literacy teaching sessions.

Copyright & Creativity : K-12 Teaching Resources on Copyright and Fair Use
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

These materials aim to provide accessible and practical information about copyright – its protections, its limitations, and its role in encouraging creativity. Rather than just emphasizing what copyright prohibits, the goal here is to offer useful and positive information about what copyright allows and how students can successfully navigate and rely on copyright in their own roles as creators.
It is important to note that these materials focus on copyright in the United States. Other countries have similar frameworks, but their rules may differ on certain concepts such as fair use.
Lessons for students in grades K-12 are provided in pdf and google slide format.

Copyright X
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

The Copyright X Course is taught by professors at Harvard University and is available synchronously to a limited number of librarians each year. However, the entire course content is available online and is openly licensed. This is a more traditional course on copyright and includes topics that would largely be discussed in a law classroom, such as theories underlying copyright law, cultural theory as it applies to copyright, and secondary liability for copyright. The course also covers many traditional areas of copyright, though, including basic foundations of copyright law, the different rights included with copyright (such as the right to reproduction, distribution and performance), and, of course, fair use. Included in the course are video lectures and lecture slides.

Copyright and Fair Use Tutorial
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

In our Avoiding Plagiarism module, we gave you tips for citing, quoting, and incorporating various sources into your writing projects. However, depending on what types of sources you use, you may also have to consider copyright and fair use laws. For example, if you want to use someone else's photo or song in one of your own projects, you'll need to make sure you have the legal right to do so. In this tutorial, you'll learn about the copyright protections that apply to work posted online, including images, text, videos, and more. You'll also learn about the rules that determine which of these resources you can use, and how you can use them.

What this tool can do for you: 1). Help you better understand how to determine the "fairness" of a use under the U.S. Copyright Code. 2). Collect, organize & archive the information you might need to support a fair use evaluation. 3). Provide you with a time-stamped, PDF document for your records [example], which could prove valuable, should you ever be asked by a copyright holder to provide your fair use evaluation and the data you used to support it. 4). Provide access to educational materials, external copyright resources, and contact information for copyright help at local & national levels.
